Apropos of nothing earthshakingly serious -- [View all]

But some days DU's video column looks like the tabloid rack at the store.
GIANT FONTS!!!
ALL CAPS!!!
CIRCLES!!!
ARROWS, LOTS OF ARROWS!!!
FREAKISH FACIAL CLOSEUPS!!!

Sometimes a person just wants to read an article or two on DU.
Or maybe it's just me.

Rant off.
